Overview
Uveal melanoma must be differentiated from pigmented nevi, congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium, optic disc melanocytoma, hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium, hyperplasia of retinal pigment epithelium, choroidal hemangioma, choroidal metastasis, choroidal osteoma, peripheral exudative hemmorhagic chorioretinopathy, choroidal hemorrhage, hemorrhagic detachment of retina and retinal pigment epithelium, posterior nodular scleritis, intraocular leiomyoma, adenoma of retinal pigment epithelium, retinoblastoma, uveal metastasis, choroidal detachment, choroidal hemangioma, choroidal cyst, uveal neurofibroma, and uveal schwannoma.[1][2]==Differential Diagnosis== The differential diagnosis of uveal melanoma includes the following:[1][2]
- Pigmented nevi
- Congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium
- Optic disc melanocytoma
- Hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium
- Hyperplasia of retinal pigment epithelium
- Choroidal hemangioma
- Choroidal metastasis
- Choroidal osteoma
- Peripheral exudative hemorrhagic chorioretinopathy
- Choroidal hemorrhage
- Hemorrhagic detachment of retina and retinal pigment epithelium
- Posterior nodular scleritis
- Intraocular leiomyoma
- Adenoma of retinal pigment epithelium
- Retinoblastoma
- Uveal metastases
- Choroidal detachment
- Choroidal cyst
- Uveal neurofibroma
- Uveal schwannoma
